Default Youtube sucks - 09-29-2006, 03:55 PM

well, apparently my computer decided it didnt like youtube (or any site like it) and it loads the videos extremely slow...it took me 10 minutes to load a 14 second video on youtube yesterday. nothing is wrong with my connection, i can go to the sites perfectly fine, but the videos just wont load. anyone know what is wrong and maybe how to fix it?

and dont tell me its cuz im on a mac because it worked hundreds of times before. this just started happening.

that was youtube as well. Are you at college because they will block shit like that sometimes, youtube works fine at home but at work it doesnt load 90% of the time.

My college doesn't block anything. Half the time if I'm in the computer lab in my history building I waste more time when I should be doing work.
